| # GitHub Actions - Self-hosted Windows Runners |
| |
| This folder contains the required resources to deploy the GitHub Actions self-hosted runners for the workflows running in Windows OS. |
| |
| #### How to build a new instance template for the instance group? |
| |
| * Create a new VM Instance using Windows 2019 Datacenter OS with at least 70GB of disk, 2vCPUs and 8 GB of RAM. |
| |
| * Install the following software: |
| * VS Build Tools 2019 |
| * MS Build Tools |
| * Desktop Development with C++ |
| * Testing tool Core Features |
| * Windows 10 SDK |
| * Git 2.34.1.windows.1 |
| * Git LFS |
| * Git Bash |
| |
| * Create an image disk from the VM instance. |
| |
| * Now that you have the image disk you can create an instance template by using it and adding the startup and shutdown scripts through the respective metadata fields. |
| |
| **Be sure that you are using a service account that has permissions to invoke cloud functions.** |
| |
| Now that the instance template is ready you can use it to either run it independently for an individual runner or create an instance group for a set of runners. |
